Personally I'd love to see some more meaningful interaction with NPCs (eg. belt rats won't shoot you if you have good standings towards them, your standings improve if you shoot people that are currently aggressing them etc.), pretty sure that's not going to happen though.

With all the whining going on I assume it will to be about null sec, industry and POS stuff.

The reason I don't do any exploring is that you don't discover anything.

Now, if you could discover new space that gets put on the map, that would be cool.

Perhaps more nullsec is needed. It could be populated by NPC's that have to be driven out in order to claim it.

Imagine, an intelligent NPC faction that actually fights like a player fleet would to keep their space.

Oh you might be talking probably about low sec small engagements, where the falcon is the only caldari ship able to do something serious while forum-quality-whining-posters call for "balance" because, of course, the drake wasn't enough.


Let alone nerfing the Drakes et al not so much due to being OP, but because they're missile boats and missiles are a lag problem.

That's not balancing, that's just moving the problem along.

trading, more market data and charts, accessible economy reports would be great as well

I think next "expansion" will have even more amazing debugs, couple new modules, and maybe one more very specific mini-game interesting for 3-7% of game's population.

WiS, please.

Of course I am also in favor of walking around in the stations so I can meet some of you in a more intimate setting.

I would personally like a toggleable undock animation as well as some minor touching up and animations.

Actually releasing the station walking would be nice too, even the same stuff in the old demos.



What would you like to see next expansion?


I think fuel and stuff for stations should have to be "floated" into the fuel bay, some might be lost, but hey, it would be realistic Roll

The next expansion will be all about 0.0 and building an empire. Expect to hear about "farms and fields". A complete redoing of Sov mechanics to add that in. More buffs to 0.0 industry and resource acquisition. Also, there is potential to change even more about the POS mechanics and add in some new structures (constructable stargates anyone?) to add new twists on Sov.

Toss in lots of ship rebalances including all the pirate ships, a more robust exploration system, another pass to tweak resource balancing, a redoing of the drone UI, and on and on. WInter is coming indeed...

Maybe what we need is a sort of land claim for null.

A bunch of new systems are discovered and everyone gets to rush and claim their piece. If they promise to improve the space, every player can have their own system. Of course, others can take it away...

thinking out of the box for a moment: WiP "Walking in Planets"

basically allow us to use an space elevator to land on planets and make the PI management actually down there, maybe something akin to Simcity, maybe allow to construct defenses against both orbital attacks and for ground combat, so districts can be improved by EVE players, and reduced to ashes by DUST bunnies.

I'd like to see them focusing on making gameplay more like the amazing promo vidoes, and not lines, text and pizza pies all over the screen.
